President Barack Obama hits the stage for a speech at the 2018 Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Ripple Of Hope Awards on Wednesday night (December 12) in New York City.

The 57-year-old former president was honored as the Ripple of Hope‘s Laureate this year at the event hosted by the late Robert F. Kennedy‘s son Robert F. Kennedy Jr and his wife Cheryl Hines.

Each year, the organization celebrates leaders of the international business, entertainment, and activist communities who have demonstrated a commitment to social change and reflect Kennedy’s passion for equality, justice, basic human rights, and his belief that we all must strive to “make gentle the life of this world.”

The 60-year-old Saturday Night Live actor stopped by Late Night with Seth Meyers on Thursday (December 6) to tell the host about his dilemma.

“My wife [Hilaria] and I had four kids in 4 ½ years,” he explained. “I go make a movie now and I’ll turn to my wife and I’ll go, ‘You realize we’re not going to make any money on this movie. The money I’m making on the movie is just going to cover the hotel bill.’”

“And my kids are there drinking $20 glasses of orange juice at the Beverly Hotel,” he added. “It’s a lot.”

“I’m 60, so let’s face it, in order to put these kids through college, I’m gonna be a greeter in Las Vegas,” he concluded. “I got to work forever now.”
